This was just the regular Red Sea so that explains the difference.

Gabe the first clue that Red Sea normal salt was going to test poorly was the fact that it was what Michael used exclusively haha.

At least I learned for 2 years what NOT to do.

[gkarshens]

That is funny!

So today my male Anthias is AWOL. Not sure why. He ate great and was the aggressor if anything.

[jnarowe]

napping?

[gkarshens]

I doubt it. Not for a whole day.

[jnarowe]

bummer dude.

[gkarshens]

I know! Lately about every 4 months or so a fish just disappears. No signs of being sick or anything and then just gone. I would worry about a Mantis maybe but I would think I would hear something sometimes.

[jnarowe]

or a hairy crab. time for some flashlight duty.

[Micki]

Yep I would be doing some in the night watches.

[gkarshens]

Actually wondering if it might be my Banded Serpent Star.

[Aimiel]

Somebody's eating those bones.

can u post a new pics of ur tangs and also do u think a salfin like urs can go in a 90

[jnarowe]

[gkarshens]

I personally would not put a sailfin in a 90. I am worried about him getting too big for my tank. The only reason I got him was I rescued him from someone's 75. I will try to get some new pics soon.

[TD13]

ok well for my 90 i iam getting a chevron and powder blue and maybe one small other tang

[gkarshens]

That's a lot of Tangs for a 90. You might want to reconsider.

[jnarowe]

My sailfin came into my possession the same way Gabriel.

TD13: Chevrons get to almost one foot. Unless you plan a major upgrade within 1 - 2 years, or have an exit strategy, ie: someone else with a large tank, that fish is way too big for a 90g IMO. One small tang in a 90 is about it. A PBT if your skills are good enough, or a bristletooth like a yellow eyed kole would be good.

[TD13]

well i will probably only going to go with two and if they get to big i will return them for a smaller one

[TD13]

i read that they get to like 9 inch but i also have other tangs in mind i will probably go with the pb but other options are purple, tomini, and choclate

[gkarshens]

Ok here are some fish pics:

[Stile2]

To get such great fish are you using a flash on the camera? Maybe even a bounce flash?

[gkarshens]

For those just the on-camera flash. When I am really trying to get great shots I use an off camera flash. I was just lazy today.

[Stile2]

I just know there WAY better than mine. Thanks

[TD13]

great pics
